Create A Poetic Production

In June of 2020, during the weeks of national outcry and mourning following the death of George Floyd, Bridge reached out to a previous collaborator, Christoph Jenkins (The Poet Life), to brainstorm a project that would respectfully respond to this tragedy, contribute meaningfully to the movement to protect black lives, and help to amplify the voice of a black artist. Bridge, courtesy of The Poet Life, commissioned poet Nina Brewton to write a poem in response to these events. Scot Hanna-Weir composed a wordless soundtrack designed solely to support Brewton’s poetry, which Bridge recorded remotely from home studios. The poem and underlying musical score both draw inspiration from “America, the Beautiful”.

Miriam’s Kitchen

“The Talented Individuals Of The Poet Life Embody The Power Of The Written And Spoken Word. I’ve Had The Pleasure Of Working With The Poet Life For Two Events—An Event Focused On The Power Of Art And Healing And Another Encouraging Individuals To Act And Not Be The Bystander. At Both Events, The Poets Demonstrated An Undeniable Gift Of Stringing Words In Rhythmic Cadences That Connects The Audience, Evokes Emotions, And Encourages Conversations.”
